This is a concierge medicine practice, and is a different style than most corporate medicine positions. They want you to take TIME with your patients, get to know them and help them understand and co-manage their care. Most encounters are on 30 minute time slots, and its all about Customer Service! The goal is to make sure they feel connected - and care provided includes diet, health advocates, diabetes educator, etc.
Making sure patients are welcomed and understand - they do a good job supporting the patient. They leverage technology to do so. The encounter could be face-to-face, over the phone, or via a telemedicine platform - some some encounters are virtual.
Providers here see an average of 10-14 patients per day.
And for the right provider, this position might be considered also a 'lifestyle medicine' position - practiced the way medicine used to be practiced!
